Surfcontrol Software

John,

First a couple of questions. Are you going to run Microsoft ISA Server 2000
or Microsoft Proxy Server? How many users and how much internet do they
use.

I run a PIII with 1 Gig of ram and the machine eats all if it. But, that's
because it is running ISA Server and the page cache eats the memory. CPU
doesn't/t seem to be a big hitter.

The big thing is this. My internet usage around here dropped to less than
20% of what it had been running when I limited where they could go and
when!!

I am close to going the surfcontrol route for internet restrictions and
such.
What kind of Hardware do your need to run this thing. My consultant is
saying
PIII and a whole bunch of ram and such. I have a old P2 333. Will it work??

John, It really depends on how much is going through the 'filter'.
I have ours on a P2 266 with a small 2GB HD. No problems yet.
If you have 100 users heavily online you will need the beef.
I'd set it up on the hardware you want for the 30 day trial and
see how it goes.

Matt
